I reader pointed me to some crazy brain research. Optogenetics.
Optogenetics uses a brain cell switch with two genetic parts. The first is a gene taken from an algae that activates the cell in the presence of blue light in order to turn towards the light and photosynthesis. In a neuron, that activation fires the cell. The second is from an archaeon, a salt-based extremophile, which responds to yellow light by pumping chlorideions. In a brain cell, that means not firing at all.
I wonder how many RVU's that would pay?
